April 22-24, 2030: at NY Yankees (3)
Game 1: 10-5 W. WP-German (2-0, 5 7 3 2 1 8). HR-Rivera (1), Luciano (2), Caminero (3), Viera (1), Arakawa (4). Rays overcame a 3-0 deficit after 2 by scoring 6 in the 3rd including Caminero's 3-run tie-breaking shot as he drove in 4 on the day. Max Viera was 2-5 with 3 runs scored and his own 2-run homer.
Game 2: 4-1 W. WP-Bradley (1-2, 6 3 0 0 2 5). S-R.Rodriguez (5). HR-Luciano (3). Luciano's 3-run homer in the 2nd backed Bradley's best outing of the season as the Rays made it 3 straight wins.
Game 3: 5-2 W. WP-Gonzalez (1-0). S-R.Rodriguez (6). Starter-Evans (1.1 0 0 0 0 3). HR-Luciano (4). There may be hope for this team yet as they completed the sweep of New York despite having to use 8 pitchers when Donye Evans went down in the 2nd with an oblique strain. With the score 2-2 in the 7th Gonzalez got Trey Riley out of a bases-loaded nobody-out jam with no runs scoring, and Rodriguez walked the bases loaded in the 9th but got two whiffs to escape. Yordan Alvarez's RBI double in the 8th was the winning hit and Caminero's 2-run single iced it.
Team record: 11-12. Next up: An off-day then we're home to play 3 against 15-8 Toronto, although it's 16-6 Boston which leads the division.
Rays news: We signed veteran lefty reliever Garrett Crochet to a minor league deal after he was let go by Milwaukee.
